Hello and welcome to another episode of Macabre for Mortals. This week and the next few weeks I will be covering the topic of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. This is an important topic that I feel has been around for millennia, albeit under different diagnosable names, but has been brought into the forefront of media since the conflict in Vietnam and the Iraq War, and more people are taking it seriously. But I also want to acknowledge that PTSD can come about through any type of trauma not just trauma of war.
